The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 975 Birthday (31)
Qingchen also took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, the concubine is really wronged. No matter how vicious the concubine is, she won't be able to poison the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to serve him. Besides, the matter has only passed so soon, and the emperor and the empress must have paid their respects." Haven't forgotten that when Xiao Hong hijacked his concubine in Nanyuan and gave him abortion pills, that poor child almost died in his hands. It was too late for his concubine to hate him, how could he help him plan to frame the emperor With the emperor here, the concubine is the imperial concubine, but if the throne falls into Xiao Hong's hands, what is the concubine? Are you a prisoner?"

Xiao Jun commanded in a warm voice: "Get up first, and compare Xiao Hong's calligraphy and painting, and the truth will naturally come to light."

If Qin Zishuo wasn't Xiao Hong, then what reason would she have to collude with him?The little eunuch's words will naturally be self-defeating.Qingchen hastily kowtowed and said: "My concubine, thank the emperor for your kindness." Then she stood up with difficulty while supporting Yun Lan's hand, Jinxiu carefully helped her to sit down, and listened to Xiao Jun's order: "Go pass on the imperial doctor, and I will give it to the imperial concubine later. Look at her legs."

Jinxiu hurriedly agreed to order someone to go to the inner hospital to summon Gu Yunfeng, and then heard Murong Shaocheng continue to say: "Xiao Wang dare to speculate, usually such a method of poisoning and framing, there must be stolen goods as evidence. Since... What's the name of that little eunuch in the imperial concubine's palace?"

Qingchen's eyebrows twitched, thinking that he really lost the chain at a critical moment. How did this person's brain grow? He seemed to be extremely clever, and he was able to analyze things clearly, but suddenly it fell apart, and he couldn't even remember his name.

She reminded angrily: "Xun Wu!"

"Oh, yes, Xun Wu!" Murong Shaocheng knocked himself on the head with a fan, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Xiao Wang wants to say that after Xun Wu is dead, the emperor and empress must order Search the palace to find evidence. If the poison is found in the imperial concubine's room, it must be the ironclad evidence of her poisoning. But Xiao Wang pondered, Xun Wu is just a rough envoy's servant, even if she intends to frame him, he will not be able to enter the imperial concubine's house. In the room of the noble concubine, then in order to frame the empress, he must find an opportunity to hide the poison in Miss Jinxiu's room. Because Miss Jinxiu is the personal maid of the imperial concubine, what she did, in a sense, is also It's like the imperial concubine did it."

The queen's tone was not good, but she still restrained her emotions, and asked dissatisfied: "Jinxiu is not the only personal maid of the imperial concubine, how can King Jing'an be so sure that that person is Jinxiu, not Qinxue or Yunlan?"

Murong Shaocheng replied without hesitation: "Because Jinxiu is the imperial concubine's dowry maid, in the eyes of outsiders, her meaning to the imperial concubine is different. Others may be bribed, but Jinxiu will never , because nothing can threaten a single handmaid to work for others."

The queen sneered, "Prince Jing'an knows a lot, he even knows that Jinxiu is the imperial concubine's dowry maid."

"Oh, no, empress, you misunderstood. The reason why Xiao Wang said this is entirely based on his own judgment. But from what the empress said, it seems that Xiao Wang guessed it right." Murong Shaocheng smiled indifferently. , pointed at Jinxiu with a fan in a calm manner and said: "The first time Xiao Wang saw this girl, he felt that her temperament was different from other maids in this palace, and the imperial concubine treated her better than others. It is more intimate, which is why Xiao Wang dared to speculate that Miss Jinxiu is the dowry maid of the imperial concubine. As for the aunt next to her, she has a noble temperament and a gentle manner, and she is by no means a maid around ordinary people. Who is the person next to the virtuous concubine?"

The queen did not expect that Murong Shaocheng was only 23 years old this year, and he seemed to be a dandy prince, but she had such a precise eye for seeing people, which surprised her a little.

"King Jing'an guessed right. Jinxiu is indeed the dowry maid of the imperial concubine, and Yun Lan was indeed not the maid of ordinary people before." The queen did not explain too much, out of politeness, she finished the calculation with a few perfunctory sentences, feeling But he kept blaming Murong for being too busy.

Murong Shaocheng said almost everything he should have said, so he smiled and bowed to the emperor sitting on the seat and said: "If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can send someone to search Miss Jinxiu's room to see if Xiao Wang's guess is correct. "

The emperor winked at the little Wuzi who was beside him, and the little Wuzi immediately retreated knowingly.

Xiao Jun had a gentle smile on his face, but his eyes were cold and indistinguishable. He said to Murong Shaocheng warmly: "My lord has worked hard, and the truth will soon be revealed. My lord, sit down and have a cup of tea and rest for a while."

Murong Shaocheng also responded respectfully and politely: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Xiao Wang has taken the liberty today, please forgive me."

Even though he was in a foreign country, Murong Shaocheng did all this without any sign of restraint or discomfort. He walked back to his seat unrestrainedly, lifted up his clothes and sat down, then began to drink tea leisurely.

Meng Tian, ​​who was kneeling in the hall, became even more flustered and helpless, kneeling there in a state of panic and bewilderment, with cold sweat on his forehead.

Hearing the emperor scold: "Meng Tian, ​​you are just a small handyman, running around in the palace without sleep in the middle of the night, you have no good intentions, you know that Qin Jieyu was killed by an assassin, so it's fine if you don't come out to testify. You also helped Concubine Shu to frame the imperial concubine, what should you do? If you hadn't participated in this matter, how would you know what Concubine Shu had done in the clothes bureau before? Well, you evil dog slave, come here, Let me drag it down, and listen to me later."

When Meng Tian heard that the emperor was going to kill him, he slumped down with a desperate scream, and cried out with a face as pale as death: "Your Majesty, what this slave is telling is the truth, the imperial concubine is indeed colluding with others in private, Qin Zishuo is really the eldest prince Xiao Hong, Your Majesty, you have to trust this slave, Mr. Qin, didn’t you say that if you tell the emperor, the emperor will trust this slave? Didn’t you say that you would protect the slave’s life..."

Meng Tian was dragged out of the hall, and while being taken away in embarrassment, he kept yelling.

At this time, Mu Jingzhi got up and said angrily: "Your Majesty, what happened just now, I thought about it, and the more I thought about it, the more afraid I became. To use the hands of the imperial concubine to kill the king, such a crime should be borne by the imperial concubine, but some people can achieve their own ulterior motives, such sinister intentions are really outrageous, and I beg the emperor to thoroughly investigate this matter and expose those who People's wolf ambitions, severely punished to scare people's hearts."

Qin Tianxu glanced at Mu Jingzhi lightly, got up unhurriedly and said: "Your Majesty, I met Meng Tian outside the palace today, and it was because of his begging that I agreed to help him ask for a chance to meet the king. The emperor is bewitched by beauty, so he can't see the truth of the matter clearly, and it's just a mistake for the country and family."
